2015 Kiawah Island Golf Resort Triathlon:
Tri-Kiawah is a USAT sanctioned (#213334) intermediate distance competition featuring a .7-mile swim, 25.1-mile bike and 6.1-mile run. This race is currently the only intermediate distance triathlon in the Charleston area to feature an ocean swim.
The competition kicks off with the .7-mile point-to-point swim in the vast, beautiful and calm Atlantic waters off Kiawah’s stunning coastline. The bike and run portions of the race take athletes along the scenic marshland, maritime forest and beachfront, allowing participants to capture the unique essence of Kiawah Island. Transition area will take place in Night Heron Park, a 21-acre spectator and family friendly park at the heart of Kiawah Island.
The Kiawah Island Golf Resort Triathlon will not only test beginner triathletes, but seasoned competitors alike in a unique environment that showcases Kiawah’s diverse natural habitats and unparalleled beauty.
Course Information:
Swim
The .7-mile point to point swim takes place in the Atlantic Ocean in front of The Sanctuary Hotel on Kiawah Island. Athletes will be swimming with the current. Ocean temperature is expected to hover near 82 degrees Fahrenheit. On Kiawah wave height can vary daily averaging 6 inches to 3 feet. All participants must wear the official race swim cap provided at packet-pick up. Following the swim event, athletes will travel approximately 200 yards over a boardwalk and asphalt bike path to the Transition Area at Night Heron Park.
Bike
The 25.1 mile bike course is a well-marked course that stretches the entire length of Kiawah Island. Winds are expected to be moderate to light as athletes bike through Kiawah’s maritime forest, with winds increasing in strength through the vast and open salt marsh habitat. Helmets are required.
Run
The race ends with a 6.1-mile run that loops through well-shaded neighborhoods and onto Kiawah’s front beach. Participants can expect an elevation change of less than 18 feet throughout the entire course. Transitioning from pavement and boardwalks to wide beach with hard packed sand provides an unequaled racing experience. On the run, aid stations are available at approximately mile 1.5, 3, 3.75 and 4.5 . Aid stations will provide water and Heed Sports Drink.
Course time limit of 4 hours.
